Method

Step-by-Step Instructions

In a large pot, heat a splash of olive oil over medium heat. Add diced carrots, celery, and onion, along with minced garlic. Sauté for 8-10 minutes until tender and fragrant.
Once vegetables are tender, stir in the shredded turkey. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to warm the turkey through.
Gradually pour in the low-sodium broth and bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat, about 5 minutes.
Gently fold in the fresh spinach and cream, allowing them to mix into the soup. Simmer for another 5-8 minutes or until the spinach is wilted.
Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper. Serve hot, garnishing with parsley.
